Ingenious. Effective. Reliable.
Storage Monitoring
Monitoring Disk Arrays
- Detects failures on the disks and controllers
- Monitors the environment (temperature, fans, power supplies)
- Monitors the fiber links (external and internal)
- Reports on the available disk space (total and per volume)
- Reports on the power consumption of the disk array (in Watts and kWh)
Monitoring Fiber Switches
- Monitors the environment (temperature, fans, power supplies)
- Monitors the fiber links (port, light, connection, speed, etc.)
- Reports on the utilization of each fiber link (traffic, total amount of data per hour or per day, bandwidth utilization) and on the power consumption of the switch (in Watts and kWh)
Monitoring NetApp Filers
- Monitors filers as disk arrays (disks, controllers, ports, environment, power consumption, etc.)
- Reports on key performance metrics (filesystem usage, traffic, replication status, shares, protocols utilization, etc.)
Monitoring Tape Libraries
- Detects failures on the tape drives and robotics
- Monitors the environment (temperature, fans, power supplies)
- Reports when drive cleaning is needed
- Reports on the tape drives utilization (mount count)
- Reports on the power consumption (in Watts and kWh)

Key Benefits
- Detect failures in your SAN Shorter time-to-repair, better uptime
- Diagnose storage performance issues Shorter time to sort out poor performance issues
- Reports on disk space availability Manage and plan storage capacity
- One single interface to monitor them all Less complexity, visibility on 100% of your IT
- Native integration with the BMC framework to achieve a successful BSM implementation (BMC Event Manager, BMC Service Impact Manager, etc.) Shorter time to implement BSM
